“Erika is an angel! First of all she agreed to care for our puppy 2 days after being spayed. Then our puppy did not do well and became ill with diarrhea and vomiting. She kept in close contact with us and continued to care for her. She had to make special food for our pup because of her diarrhea. Erika is just the sweetest person you will meet and she even washed all of the items in her kennel. We can not say enough positive things about her - if you need an angel to take care of your dog baby consider Erika!”
“Anne was awesome with our two dogs, she is such a kind person and I can tell she loves animals. We will utilize her again our dogs loved staying with her verus in a kennel ”
“Erica is phenomenal! We’ve used her twice now and Campbell clearly loves her! She takes such great care of our pup and we’ll definitely use her again! Thanks Erica!”
“I highly recommend Cathy. She cared for our senior mini dachshund like he was her own. I received plenty of pics and updates. We had no worries knowing he was well cared for.”
“Judy is always responsive when we check in! She sends a ton of photos showing how much fun Raider is having; and quickly lets us know when something negative happens. We will use her again and again!”
“WOW! Emily and Paul were absolutely exceptional! They met Charlie’s needs and even went above. Charlie was so happy when we picked him up compared to another dogsitter where he was traumatized when we picked him up. We were well informed throughout the three day stay and had great photos of him.”
About: I have worked with numerous animals since I was 5 years old. I have owned chickens, rabbits, horses, dogs, and cats my entire life. I am a 4-H leader where I teach children how to train dogs and I help them show and prepare their animals at fair. I also show my own animals at the fair. Additionally, I have pet sat for numerous family members over the years as well as friends. I will always be there for your pet and I will make sure they are well taken care of and loved just like they are my own. I am a teacher who is currently on summer break. So my schedule is pretty open during the summer and I have a lot of availability. During the school year, most of my weekends are free as well as when we have breaks. I am flexible and willing to make things work for you! I live on a little hobby farm with my husband. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats who are very friendly. I have everything needed in my home to take care of a dog including a kennel if needed as well as tie outs. We have a lake that is 5 minutes from our house and if your dog loves to swim, I would be happy to take them. I take my dogs all over in the summer and I would make sure your pet gets a lot of attention and exercise as well. Additionally, we have a huge barn and fenced in pasture as well as rabbit hutches in the barn and a chicken coop! Whatever animal you have they can be comfortable at my property. Additionally, if you feel better about your animal staying at home, I am happy to accommodate to that as well.
“Addison did a wonderful job watching our dog, Jackson! We felt very at ease with him staying with her overnight and really appreciated the multiple updates with photos she sent us! She is very friendly and was quick to respond to all communication. We would definitely use Addison as a dog sitter again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of animals of all different species and sizes throughout my life, I've always found a deeper connection with animals, and the more I care for them, the more I see that. For Dogs, I can get along with most, although I am admittedly spooked by bigger or more aggressive dogs (Cane Corso's for reference). And as for cat's, I'm always willing to take carr of another feline friend, my closest animal companions in life have been cats! I can respect a cats boundaries very well. Notes: For dogs with Clicker training, I do own a clicker. I cannot allow other cats in my home, as one of my cats is not friendly with others. I'm typically up very early to feed my cat and spend whatever free time I have giving him attention and love while I relax. I am currently unemployed, so I can tend to pets around the clock! My yard is not fenced, I can keep a dog close if need be. I am more than willing to take pets on walks to the park, or outdoors in general. I can adapt to most any animals schedule pretty easily. My house is pretty large, so most animals will have plenty of space to roam and get comfy, and I can make accommodations for any special pet gear needed. List of tasks or care instructions would be highly appreciated, and would help me stick to a given schedule.
“My dog Oakley had such a great time at Julie’s. She took great care of him and sent pictures of him having a great time at her house and playing with her dogs. We will definitely use her in the future!”
“Laura boarded Wiley for a weekend. Wiley was well taken care of and enjoyed her Yard. Wiley often has anxiety when we are gone but adapted to Laura and family nicely. He was a happy boy when we picked him up. Laura sent photos and communicated how Wiley was adapting. All went perfectly. I highly recommend Laura to watch your dog.”
“Anu and her family are amazing! The care and attention of our little one’s needs are priceless. From the booking to the stay we have been thrilled with Anu’s communication and knowledge of how to make our dog feel comfortable and happy. So glad we found Anu!!!”
“Danielle took VERY good care of Mickey while I was on vacation!! She is a very caring person and texted me when she was concerned when he was not eating. I would highly recommend her.”
“10/10 Highly recommend! Jamie did an amazing job with our pups. We haven't left them before for any period of time, so were a bit nervous about how they would do. Jamie was exactly the person they needed. She welcomed them into her home and made their stay absolutely perfect.”
“Had consistent updates and felt very comfortable leaving Furb with Hannah & Braxton B while we were on vacation. Furb said it went super well and already misses his new friends.”
“Jesus and his family took great care of our 2 French bulldogs. They sent pictures, took the dogs on walks, and made sure our dogs were comfortable. Great communication throughout. Highly recommend!!”
“We actually ended up not leaving Poquito with Frankie because our plans changed, but Frankie was very easy to communicate with, understanding, and accommodating. I will definitely contact her again if we need a sitter in Sheboygan.”

“We greatly appreciated the time and attention Carrie took in caring for our 5 month old puppy! She stopped in twice a day and feed, walked, and played with our pup while we were away at work! Would recommend Carrie to anyone! She was punctual, professional, and did exactly what we asked her to do!”
About: I am an animal lover through and through, cats includes!😄 How I care for cats comes from personal experience. I provide gentle, attentive, and compassionate care for whatever your kitties need. Cats are so fun with their unique personalities and temperaments. I look forward to getting to know your feline friend(s). If you want to know more, here are some of my personal experiences: 1) I grew up with our family cat, Nala. Raising Nala, I learned how to read feline behavior and needs from a young age. 2) Cat sitting for my neighbors’ two timid cats has been invaluable as well. Knowing how to respect space and create a calm environment is key. 3) I also enjoy playing with my brother-in-law’s cat, Kumiko. Knowing how to keep a feline stimulated mentally and physically through their senses is important for any kitties well-being and overall happiness.
“Chyna took care of our cat for a week while we were on vacation. Will keep booking with her due to great communication, following directions, and accommodating an elderly cat’s medication routine.”
“Trusting someone to come into your home and care for your animals is never easy… unless you get the chance to book Melissa. She sent photos and messages and went above and beyond. 10/10 totally recommend.”
About: I've been around cats since I was 10 years old and currently have 4 of my own, so I know how important consistency and gentle care are for feline companions. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, and giving cats the space and attention they individually need.
“Bethany was great ant accommodating all my needs and requests. My normally shy cat made a great connection and enjoying everytime she came over. Would 100% recommend Bethany to anyone with pet sitting needs.”
“Anne was wonderful with my cat, Lia. My cat seemed to enjoy the visits and extra attention. Anne was also great with communication and sending photos of what Lia was up to. Will definitely reach out to Anne in the future when needed!”
“Haley arrived on time, followed the instructions we left and helped with a modem problem that she was able to fix. She asked to meet us and the cats prior to pet sitting which I think is a great idea since we have never used her or this service before. She accepted a package I forgot was coming and followed my instructions upon its arrival. She sent pictures and updates daily which I appreciate. She even took Angel on a short walk in her pet stroller before the rain. I would absolutely hire her again.”
“We’re so grateful for the great care our cats received! She made sure they always had fresh food and water and kept an eye on everything while we were away. Our cats are pretty shy and tend to hide, but it gave us peace of mind knowing they were being checked on. We really appreciated her help and would happily recommend her!”
“Absolutely fabulous sitter! Genuinely loves and cares for our furbabies as if they were her own. Ours are super skittish kitties, and she was so patient with them, gently trying to coax them out. Came home and they were all so happy and healthy!”
“Mya was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and she went above and beyond any expectations! She cared for my animals so well and kept me updated which I greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend.”
About: I love all animals. I have taken care of my family, friends, and my own pets for years. I am a huge believer in play and fun. I assist pets with a more active lifestyle with love. I am reliable and will treat your pet as my own. I too have been on extended trips and felt the worry associated with being gone. I understand how to calm pets and make the experience positive for all involved. I am an effective communicator and will give updates for piece of mind. I have had behavioral training. I hope to be your regular and become a true friend/ helper for your pet reducing all anxiety and offering a wonderful experience for your beloved pet. Good care and vibes only.
“Sara has been a blessing for my cat and I. My cat used to be very anxious when I come home due my work hours; however, since having Sara's drop-ins she is very calm, sweet and playful when I come home-!!. Sara is very sweet and has a calm demeanor. She follows the given instructions , responds to messages on time, send you awesome pictures and videos and you can tell she tries to take care of your pet like one of her own. I would highly recommend her!!”

“Erica was a god-send when we couldn’t take our dog with us to an event out of town. Her profile told me she’d be great and I was so grateful she was available. It was only for 5 hours but she managed to get our sometimes finicky and whiny dog to settle and eat her food when given! I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“The best option to watch your dog! They’re so communicative and send a ton of pictures! They’re flexible when things come up, and Becky always comes home absolutely tuckered out from all the fun she has! ☺️”
“Frankie was so nice. We met before the scheduled date. She gave a detailed and great description before the drop off time and made sure everything was fine. Riley came back happy.”

About: After being an elementary teacher for the last 15 years I have decided to stay home and join Rover while my kids are in school! I will of course be available after school and weekends too! I have a deep love for all animals so please trust me to take care of your fur babies like they were my own! I taught elementary school for 15 years and we moved to the area recently. My kids are in school and my husband works out of town. I would love to spend my week taking care of your pets and enjoying this beautiful area. I am happy to visit your pets in your own home and stop by anytime for a walk or just for a needed potty break! I also welcome pets to my own home :)
About: We recently lost our senior dog, so we have lots of doggy love available for your pet! I work from home, so your pet will get lots of attention, frequent visits to the backyard, and a walk at lunchtime. I work from home full time, so I'm here to interact with your pet and provide frequent breaks for play and potty. My boyfriend gets home from work in the late afternoon and will shower your pet with affection as well! I have a small, unfenced yard and will let your dog outside on a long lead to keep him/her safe and under my supervision. Your dog will have access to kitchen, living/dining room, bathroom, and up to 3 bedrooms. Basement will not be accessible.
“You have a great place for a pup to hang out! Thank you for taking care of Duke, he must have had a great time because he’s all tuckered out! We hope you’re available next time we are in the area. Take care, and thanks!”
About: I love animals, and I care deeply for them. Their company never bothers or annoys me. It makes me happy to take care of them. 😊 I've been taking care of animals since I was little, and I've had a variety of them. I'll never judge an animal or get angry with one; they are pure and true. I've owned and looked after hamsters, lizards, birds, dogs, and cats of different shapes, sizes, and ages throughout my whole life, providing the necessities they need. I'm currently free all the time, so I can always be there. I can be ready anytime during the day and for a decent amount of hours. As a pet sitter, I prioritize providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for furry friends like yours, either in my home or outside and/or your home.
About: Since I was little I have always loved animals, I feel that I have a unique connection with them. From 10 years old. In Ecuador, I was taking care of dogs. The neighbors have trusted me for the attention I gave their pets, for playing with them, etc. But since I arrived in the United States I have not been able to continue with that hobby. I took care of the dogs of the owner of the house where he lived for 6 years, giving him all the love, patience and daily attention he needed. I don't have much real experience with food, walking and bathing. I am reliable, friendly and treat everyone like a family. I am available from Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday mornings until 10 a.m. and in the afternoon from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Sundays only in the mornings until 11 p.m. My first language is Spanish but I don't speak English very well or fluently, I know basic things but I understand most of them. I give food and water on time. I walk them, play a little and keep everything clean. I tell the owner how it goes with photos.
About: I love taking care of dogs. I will walk your dog in the Spring, Summer and Fall in good weather. Your dog will have my 3 year old Maltese to play with. I’m CPR trained and if needed, with calling you first, take your dog to my home town ER hospital (hope we never need to use that). Your dog must be potty trained for outside. My grandchildren all love dogs, they visit sometimes. I have been with dogs all my life. So rest assured I’ll take care of your dog while I take care of mine and my grandchildren. I will have play time and potty breaks. Will try to teach your dog new tricks. I’ve taken training classes with Pet Smart. You won’t regret placing your pet with me.
“Emily communicated great before and during our dog’s puppy daycare with her. Her and her husband were both super friendly and listened to our comments regarding our puppy. Our dog got along great with their dog, Ruby. This was a really great experience and I’d highly recommend Emily to anyone.”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about our dog walker! She took such loving care of my two dogs, Roley and Maddie, and treated them as if they were her own. Roley is an older pug and Maddie is a big Anatolian Shepherd, and she was amazing with both of their very different needs and personalities. I truly appreciated her reliability, kindness, and the updates she shared with me, which gave me complete peace of mind. It was obvious that Roley and Maddie were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Finding someone I can trust with my dogs means so much to me, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and compassionate pet sitter or dog walker.”
About: I am training my own dog as a psychiatric service animal and have learned much going through this process. I am not a licensed trainer, but I do have experience in that area, which I enthusiastically bring to each walk. I'm flexible with scheduling and do my best to make things as simple and convenient as possible even if that means scheduling outside of my availability schedule when possible. Additionally, if I have any upcoming dates that I am unavailable this will be communicated well in advance. Availability schedule: Monday= 8am-10am Tuesday= 8am-6pm Wednesday= 8am-6pm Thursdays= 8am-11am (craft fair season), 8am-6pm (rest of year) F= 8am-10am Sat= 2pm-6pm (craft fair season), 8am-6pm (rest of year) My general motto is always leave the space looking better upon leaving then when you first arrived. This applies to animals too. Always leave a pet happier, more content, calmer, etc. after being with them. Have multiple pets? No problem. The more the merrier.
About: - has had 3 dogs throughout my life, 2 miniature schnauzers and 1 German Shepherd - has dog watched all different breeds throughout high school - had a dog with diabetes and was blind, knows how to give injections, pills if needed -passionate about loving and caring for dogs! I am able to take care of dogs Monday through Sunday, though times may differ, but usually free later on in the day. Mornings and evenings generally preferred! I am unable to have pets in my home but I am able to walk them, feed them, as well as help them before leaving your home with anything they need to be the most comfortable before you come home.
About: I've been watching dogs for over 10 years, caring for pets belonging to friends and family. At home, I share my life with 2 dogs and 4 cats, so I understand the different personalities, needs, and quirks that come with each animal. Whether it's playtime, feeding schedules, or just extra cuddles, I treat every pet I watch like my own. Pet care fits easily into my day since I have a flexible schedule. I'm available for walks, feedings, and check-ins with dogs throughout the day, and I'm also happy to handle litter box care, feeding, and quiet companionship for cats. In a client's home, I follow their existing routine as closely as possible — same food, same schedule, same favorite spots — so the pet's day feels as normal as possible while their owner is away.
“Melissa does so well with sunny. She comes in on time, and made it so much easier for us as my wife had surgery and I was working from home. Highly highly recommend. I never worry where sunny is or what hes up to and he loves seeing her.”
“Chyna is so wonderful! She's so good with the dogs and is a great communicator! I could rely on her 100% and the dogs adored her! You can't go wrong. I highly recommend Chyna!”

“I found Veronica last minute as I needed help with my pooch as I recover from knee surgery. She won't be my last minute person anymore! She was professional and went out of her way to get my dog out for much needed exercise and a romp on the city bike/run path! Excellent!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with unique needs, including reactivity and behavioral challenges. I rescued my Australian Cattle Dog when she was three years old and have spent years training her and learning how to safely and compassionately manage reactivity around other animals and, at times, children. Through this experience, I’ve developed strong skills in reading animal body language, using positive reinforcement, and creating calm, structured environments. I truly love all animals and understand that every pet is different. I've taken care of friends and families pets in the past and I always have the absolute best time! I’m patient, attentive, and committed to providing the best possible care while you’re away, making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. I’m currently in my last semester college, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility in my schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my days, and I can give animals the attention they deserve. Spending time with furry friends is honestly the best way to spend time between and after class! I make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely and respect the rules and preferences set by their owner. I take the time to understand feeding schedules, play habits, and any specific instructions so that everyone feels comfortable and at ease. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for pets.
About: I owned a dog for over a decade, and babysat dogs/ cats many times. I worked with animals at a zoo so I’m good at reading them and respecting their boundaries! I work second shift (3-11pm) M-F so check ins would work best for those days. I can still dog/cat sit during the weekdays if you’re are okay with your pets being alone for a full shift, or being watched by my parents (while pets are boarded at our house). My weekends are completely open! I have a large backyard and tennis court. I also live near a very nice bike trail for long walks. I have no other animals in the house. I have ramps for small/old dogs.
About: Hello! I've been taking care of pets every since my professors at my university trusted me to dog-sit in their homes. I've always had a love of animals. As a child I spent most of my free time volunteering at my local animal shelter by walking dogs to give them a break and fresh air or training them to help them be more likely to be adopted. As an adult I've worked as a zookeeper (my all-time favorite animal to care for are probably lemurs) and as a high school biology teacher. I've normally utilized word of mouth to grow my pet-sitting business, but since I've recently moved to a smaller town, I decided to test out Rover. I can't wait to meet your pet :) I work from home now so I have an ample amount of time to snuggle, play, and walk your pet! I am currently working from home, which means I can spend ample amounts of time with your pet. Just let me know what you would like to have done and I'm happy to accommodate. Generally I enjoy house-sitting/pet-sitting because it allows your pet to stay in a place that feels comfortable to them. I have my own dog and cat, so if I end up taking care of your pet at my house, we will do a meet and greet ahead of time with the pets to make sure everyone gets along ok.
About: I have taken care of multiple friends pets for days , if not weeks straight. I've worked at multiple shelters helping out with dog walking and cleaning , and I've also volunteered at functions to raise funds for shelters. The joke is with my faculty I am the resident dog guru. I am a teacher so i'm able to do very early walks starting at 5:30am. I have to be at work by 7:30 am. I am done with school by 4:30, except January- March when I have to be back to director musical practice. If you need someone to how sit your pet. I guarantee that I will try my best to be at the house and not running errands, except to go to work. I'm a big believer in if I'm taking care of an animal in their own home that I need to be at that house as long as I possibly can because that pet deserves the companionship and the freedom to be let out to play. I love taking long walks.I enjoy nature and so taking longer walks with animals does not bother me.
“We are fortunate to have Annie on an on-going basis to visit our dog Molly for potty breaks and walks while we are at work. Annie always responds promptly to any communication, questions or booking inquiries. When she visits Molly she leaves a detailed log about the visit. It's obvious that Annie loves pets and she goes above and beyond to give Molly love, affection, attention, exercise and an outdoor break each visit. When Annie is scheduled to visit, we know Molly will receive great care and a needed break and that gives us tremendous peace of mind. We love Annie!”

About: I am specialized in training all types of dogs! I make sure that the dog is taken care of and is having a blast while the parents are gone! I am very outgoing, active, and good at communicating. I currently work part time as a server so I am available whenever just may have to step away for a couple hours to waitress. I have tons of grass area at my house, and have a ton of room as well for the dog to move around and play when needed!
About: I’ve worked with variety of species, specializing with dogs! I have skills with grooming and training. I have 4 of my own dogs and do dog sports as well! I work from home so I have extra time to care for your pets and am able to move around my schedule. Saturdays are the only days I may not be able to take same day bookings! I understand crate and gate management and will make sure your animals are happy and healthy! As of right now I can’t offer boarding in my own home but maybe in the future
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I had my own dog for 16 years, from childhood through her senior years, so I understand the responsibility, patience, and consistency dogs need at every stage of life. I regularly walked her and taught her commands like sit, shake, and roll over. As she got older and developed health conditions, I continued caring for her with patience and attention to her changing needs. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society and used to go with my mom when I was younger, which helped me become comfortable around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’m dependable, caring, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I’m home from college for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to spend my weekdays doing something I genuinely enjoy. I only work a few nights a week, so I have a pretty flexible daytime schedule for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’ve always loved being around dogs, so this feels like the perfect side job for me while I’m home. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, and I’d love to help give your pets some extra attention, exercise, and care during the day. When caring for pets, I always try to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. During walks I keep dogs closely leashed, pay attention to our surroundings, bring water and waste bags, and make sure not to walk too far especially in hot weather or with older dogs. For drop in visits I make sure pets have fresh food and water, get attention and play time, and that everything is clean and secure before I leave. I also know how important pets are to people, so I’d always keep owners updated and send pictures when I can.
About: I love taking care of all different kinds of pets, I love working with pets that have unique personalities. There is still so many breeds of both dogs and cats that I would love to be able to take care of. I am currently working part-time at a pet boarding/ daycare facility and still going to school. I still seem to have time that I feel as if I am wasting and need something to fill that void. In my clients home I will try to stick to the instructions that they give me when I am caring for their pet. I will also do anything extra depending on the pet and the different needs that they may have. (Ex. If they are a senior pet or a puppy)

“Erika is an angel! First of all she agreed to care for our puppy 2 days after being spayed. Then our puppy did not do well and became ill with diarrhea and vomiting. She kept in close contact with us and continued to care for her. She had to make special food for our pup because of her diarrhea. Erika is just the sweetest person you will meet and she even washed all of the items in her kennel. We can not say enough positive things about her - if you need an angel to take care of your dog baby consider Erika!”
“Anne was awesome with our two dogs, she is such a kind person and I can tell she loves animals. We will utilize her again our dogs loved staying with her verus in a kennel ”
“Erica is phenomenal! We’ve used her twice now and Campbell clearly loves her! She takes such great care of our pup and we’ll definitely use her again! Thanks Erica!”
“Judy is always responsive when we check in! She sends a ton of photos showing how much fun Raider is having; and quickly lets us know when something negative happens. We will use her again and again!”
“WOW! Emily and Paul were absolutely exceptional! They met Charlie’s needs and even went above. Charlie was so happy when we picked him up compared to another dogsitter where he was traumatized when we picked him up. We were well informed throughout the three day stay and had great photos of him.”
About: I have worked with numerous animals since I was 5 years old. I have owned chickens, rabbits, horses, dogs, and cats my entire life. I am a 4-H leader where I teach children how to train dogs and I help them show and prepare their animals at fair. I also show my own animals at the fair. Additionally, I have pet sat for numerous family members over the years as well as friends. I will always be there for your pet and I will make sure they are well taken care of and loved just like they are my own. I am a teacher who is currently on summer break. So my schedule is pretty open during the summer and I have a lot of availability. During the school year, most of my weekends are free as well as when we have breaks. I am flexible and willing to make things work for you! I live on a little hobby farm with my husband. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats who are very friendly. I have everything needed in my home to take care of a dog including a kennel if needed as well as tie outs. We have a lake that is 5 minutes from our house and if your dog loves to swim, I would be happy to take them. I take my dogs all over in the summer and I would make sure your pet gets a lot of attention and exercise as well. Additionally, we have a huge barn and fenced in pasture as well as rabbit hutches in the barn and a chicken coop! Whatever animal you have they can be comfortable at my property. Additionally, if you feel better about your animal staying at home, I am happy to accommodate to that as well.
“Addison did a wonderful job watching our dog, Jackson! We felt very at ease with him staying with her overnight and really appreciated the multiple updates with photos she sent us! She is very friendly and was quick to respond to all communication. We would definitely use Addison as a dog sitter again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of animals of all different species and sizes throughout my life, I've always found a deeper connection with animals, and the more I care for them, the more I see that. For Dogs, I can get along with most, although I am admittedly spooked by bigger or more aggressive dogs (Cane Corso's for reference). And as for cat's, I'm always willing to take carr of another feline friend, my closest animal companions in life have been cats! I can respect a cats boundaries very well. Notes: For dogs with Clicker training, I do own a clicker. I cannot allow other cats in my home, as one of my cats is not friendly with others. I'm typically up very early to feed my cat and spend whatever free time I have giving him attention and love while I relax. I am currently unemployed, so I can tend to pets around the clock! My yard is not fenced, I can keep a dog close if need be. I am more than willing to take pets on walks to the park, or outdoors in general. I can adapt to most any animals schedule pretty easily. My house is pretty large, so most animals will have plenty of space to roam and get comfy, and I can make accommodations for any special pet gear needed. List of tasks or care instructions would be highly appreciated, and would help me stick to a given schedule.
“My dog Oakley had such a great time at Julie’s. She took great care of him and sent pictures of him having a great time at her house and playing with her dogs. We will definitely use her in the future!”
“Laura boarded Wiley for a weekend. Wiley was well taken care of and enjoyed her Yard. Wiley often has anxiety when we are gone but adapted to Laura and family nicely. He was a happy boy when we picked him up. Laura sent photos and communicated how Wiley was adapting. All went perfectly. I highly recommend Laura to watch your dog.”
“Anu and her family are amazing! The care and attention of our little one’s needs are priceless. From the booking to the stay we have been thrilled with Anu’s communication and knowledge of how to make our dog feel comfortable and happy. So glad we found Anu!!!”
“Danielle took VERY good care of Mickey while I was on vacation!! She is a very caring person and texted me when she was concerned when he was not eating. I would highly recommend her.”
“10/10 Highly recommend! Jamie did an amazing job with our pups. We haven't left them before for any period of time, so were a bit nervous about how they would do. Jamie was exactly the person they needed. She welcomed them into her home and made their stay absolutely perfect.”
“Had consistent updates and felt very comfortable leaving Furb with Hannah & Braxton B while we were on vacation. Furb said it went super well and already misses his new friends.”
“Jesus and his family took great care of our 2 French bulldogs. They sent pictures, took the dogs on walks, and made sure our dogs were comfortable. Great communication throughout. Highly recommend!!”
“We actually ended up not leaving Poquito with Frankie because our plans changed, but Frankie was very easy to communicate with, understanding, and accommodating. I will definitely contact her again if we need a sitter in Sheboygan.”
“Boarding experience review) This is our first dog, and our first time using Rover, and Salena helped put ease to our mind! She sent pictures of our puppy and was really flexible to work with. Bale slept so good when he came home, and he looked like he had the best time! We will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Scott was great!! He was very accommodating with all of Sadie’s needs and our concerns. He mentioned a few activities that he would do and showed us where Sadie would go out and play. The area was fenced in and very secure. He has two dogs of his own and they were very friendly and Sadie got along great with them.We felt very comfortable after dropping Sadie with Scott. We highly recommend him, and would certainly use his services anytime.”
“My two small/ medium sized dogs LOVED their stay! Kerry, and her whole family, really, cared so well for our girls! They sent pictures and kept us updated about how they were doing. Sunny and Polly were exhausted and happy ! I have already rebooked!”
